I'll always be slowly catching up on comp tech.
I was using Knoppix and ClamAV to remove a virus for a friend when the
futility of it all hit me. The free anti-virus hopscotch game that windows
users play to feel safe. What wasted energy--over an OS I boot into maybe
7% of the time. They screw up half the time.
There isn't a big demand for ClamAV on the Debian partitions of a
laptop/desktop. But I'll be scheduling scans of the XP partition from
Debian. Doh!
There is even a ClamAV *win32* for the unlucky.
